Just a fun little thread to foster chit-chat
What togs have you got on today? I'll go first: blue Adidas shorts and blue n grey Adidas tee shirt, complete with the logo
Lolooololll, I remember those ads. Imo Brut smelled nice! I don't like aftershave either!
Brut 33. I splash it on all over...
Brut 33 advert with Barry Sheene and Henry Cooper.
Striped black and white t-shirt, waistcoat, old jeans for painting in. Bank holidays are great, no stopping to rush off anywhere! I also wore my onsie. I had a business English class that thought onsies sounded hilarious and they asked me what they should do if nature calls if wearing one . I told them to put together a consortium and find some business solutions.
The onsie did eventually arrive here.
Today as every weekend I am wearing Victorian style clothes, so 1837-1901 era,
hard working man in his best Sunday clothes. Not peaky blinders or gentry or squire, just plain and often mismatched in colour.
practical,old,well worn,
so today,,,light brown plain shoes all leather from around 1940’s era, brown cotton trousers with button flies,collar less shirt light blue with lines running down, swede/leather waist coat,pocket watch on chain,Brown speckle jacket tweed but with no lined pattern like most. Braces. But clipnon,need to source button type and get sewing buttons into all my trousers. Brown peeked cap,farmer style.
I have four jackets,all slightly different but tweed, some very old,variouse waist coats different ones for each jacket or colour of trousers, another very old dark all leather pair of plain shoes, two cardigans that look old style but are modern, lots of different caps,and about four scarfs as Victorian workers didn’t wear ties, all practical clothes.
I have only been wearing these for a couple of months but decided after 50 odd years I want to wear what I am comfortable in,,,,and boy oh boy I feel like me, I imagine my passion and feeling of joy comes out in my description.
I can sew and have a very keen eye for style and look. Tiny details can dramatically change the look.
Thank you if you managed to keep reading this far,,,,well done,
Honest clothing that doesn’t try to show any wealth.

Is there anyone else here that doesn't like to change their clothes?
Shorts, socks, sweat top. I need to get ready for bed soon.
My thought is 'if I lied about what I was wearing' how would you know? Or have I missed the point?
Bubble wrap.. keep the world at bay..
'We Are The Alternative Conspiracy' hoodie, jeans... and glasses!
I often can be found wearing a cheeky grin on my face too
Pj's, hooded dressing gown and furry slipper boots with ears and faces. I am the queen of bedtime. Lol.
Bathrobe, boxers, socks and a red vest. ( I have not got dressed, I am unwell. Sick and tired.)
Band shirt (Mastodon), Iron Maiden jeans, and a baseball cap (Yes, I'm one of them that wears them backwards, I'm not sorry)
Pretty much my everyday attire, lol.
Lol again. Master Martian....
Birthday suits are perfectly acceptable. I've sent mine away to be taken in a little...
Nothing....lol....(sorry, couldn't resit) ...only joking...black skinny jeans, black wool jumper for comfort and as a security blanket.
White Adidas shorts with blue stripe, blue Adidas football-style tee shirt, Adidas Gazelle trainers, blue with red stripes, and a shiny grey Silk Silk Volcano bomber jacket. Pretty cool me lol
It's winter here.
Pair of jeans. Boots (hiking boots - it's icy).
I do layers on top. My favourite winter layer is very thin merino knit that I did the edge binding with silk. It's light and warm. I have some heavy woolen jerseys for top layer.
I'm currently about half way through the consideration on a replacement jacket...mine is 15 years old and losing its ability to be dry. My pet hate is new clothes.
3/4 length denim shorts and blue t shirt. Usually if i'm going out my partner will tell me what to wear as I have no sense of fashion, but today was a house day with the kids so I avioded the critique
Joggers and a vest top, pretty much pj's, recovering from a nasty migraine from yesterday. Definite lazy day.
